Once again, the fossil fuel industry gets its claws in a struggling newspaper to turn public opinion against the energy transition and scrutiny away from oil and gas. Here's our earlier coverage on how Chevron does it in Richmond, CA: exxonknews.org/p/news-brought…

The Makah and Shoalwater Bay Tribes sued Big Oil this year after climate change forced them to relocate their communities. "They absolutely should be at the front of this movement and holding these companies accountable." #IndigenousPeoplesDay exxonknews.org/p/pacific-coas…

Today ExxonKnews reveals that The Atlantic is spitting out fossil fuel industry propaganda. Subscribers to The Atlantic should know that the media company is pushing corporate marketing, not independent research. exxonknews.org/p/southern-com…

Southern Company is promoting “propaganda” disguised as research — with help from a major media company. “At a time when facts are under siege, I am concerned that news publishers are adding to the confusion and eroding their own legitimacy." exxonknews.org/p/southern-com…
